Cambridge Platonists

Group of 17th-century English philosophers and Puritan theologians, centred on Cambridge University. In opposing the materialism of their contemporary Thomas Hobbes, they drew on the ideas of neo-Platonism and the ancient Greek Plato. They stressed in particular the individual's innate spiritual and moral nature. Leading members of the group included the theologian Benjamin Whichcote (1609–1683) and the philosophers Ralph Cudworth and Henry More.
